Staying active is a vital part of a healthy lifestyle, but if you wear wigs, finding the right one for your workout can make all the difference! You need something breathable, secure, and stylish, whether you're hitting the gym, walking in the park, or swimming laps. At Aderans, we’ve rounded up some of the best wig options that are perfect for the warmer months ahead and ideal to exercise in. Get ready to feel confident and comfortable every step of the way…
Short Pixie Wigs: Perfect for Swimming and High-Intensity Workouts
If you’re a swimmer or love high-intensity workouts, a short pixie wig is a game-changer.
- Lightweight and easy to manage, pixie wigs stay close to the head so they won’t touch the water.
- A shorter wig is less likely to get tangled or heavy if you do get them wet — plus, it dries quickly!
- Top tip – invest in some wig tape or a wig grip to secure your style.
- Choose synthetic fibre for swimming, as it holds up better to chlorine or saltwater exposure.
- We recommend trying the Bari wig from the Modixx collection.

Halo Hairpiece and Hat Combo: Cool and Comfortable for Summer Walks
For outdoor activities like walking or hiking, a halo hairpiece worn with a hat or headwear is a brilliant option.
- Halo pieces give you the look of a full head of hair without the weight or heat of a full wig.
- Simply pair with your favourite cap, sunhat, or headwear to stay protected from the sun.
- The open top allows for maximum airflow, keeping you cool even on the hottest days.

We also have our Halo Bob options for those who prefer an off-the-shoulder look. Take a peek here.
Breathable Headwear Options: Quick, Easy, and Chic
Sometimes, simple is best. Headwear solutions like bamboo or cotton-lined turbans and caps are:
- Lightweight, breathable, and easy to throw on for quick workouts like yoga, pilates, or a casual jog.
- The House of Christine Headwear collection features special technology to keep sweat away from your scalp, helping you stay cool and comfortable.
- Available in lots of stylish colours and prints, so you can match your headwear to your outfit!
Lace Front Wigs: Perfect for a Natural, Pulled-Back Look
Need something that can handle a ponytail or workout braid? Lace front wigs are a top choice.
- The realistic hairline means you can pull a few baby hairs around your face and nape for a natural look.
- We recommend taking a look at the Vero wig from the Hi-Fashion collection. Watch @abbz_alopecia tutorial here.
- Consider visiting one of our 7 UK salon locations for a free consultation. Our hair loss experts can give advice on the best piece for you based on lifestyle. They will also help you find the perfect fit for your scalp. Take a look for your closet salon here.
Synthetic Fiber Wigs for Easy Maintenance
When you're sweating and moving, you don't want to worry about damaging a delicate human hair wig.
- Synthetic wigs are an excellent choice for workouts because they hold their style, resist frizz, and require minimal upkeep.
- Look for heat-resistant synthetic fibres if you want to restyle your wig with heat tools after your workout (always read the heat instructions). We recommend checking out the Belle Comfort wig from the Ellen Wille collection.
We believe that nothing should hold you back from living your most active, confident life… least of all your hair! Whether you prefer the simplicity of a pixie cut, the breathability of a halo hairpiece, or breathable headwear, we have options to fit your lifestyle and look.
